Oh, eew. :-(
Eh, it's on wheels. The only problems come
when one has to go up a
step or two. In my case, this time, I had to jockey it around to be
removed from a garage, which will happen tomorrow.
Ah, mine had been taken off the stand (I did get the stand too, it;s now
back on it). And, yes, there were steps, tight corners, etc to negotiate. It was a lot less hassle ot take it to bits (it took
only a few minutes)
than to have to manhandle it. And I learnt how the drive went together
which was a help later on.
I did a lot of work on my first one around 1986 or so. The guy I
bought it from (who was also a mentor of mine) was kind enough to give
me docs and printsets for it (which I still have of course) and I was
able to learn a lot about it and do a lot of maintenance without help.
I'd not trade that experience for anything!
